Historia pojęcia „solidarność”
The history of notion of “solidarność”

Summary/Abstract: Solidarity as a polysemous (ambiguous) concept is a multicultural or supra-cultural value rooted in ethics all over the world. It refers primarily to human community life and the universal tendency to support each other in dangerous situations, a tendency that is written in our genes. This concept is currently experiencing a renaissance, appearing in new areas of human life, e.g. in connection with the Covid-19 pandemic, climate disasters, the war in Ukraine; in scientific research; in new technologies (artificial intelligence); or in microbiology – where it is solidarity discovered in the natural world (e.g. the world of fungi), and thus also an introduction to the synonyms of solidarity and the concept of symbiosis. The concept of solidarity includes the obligation to care for those in need and the responsibility to continue living in the „global village“ as an expression of solidarity with future generations.
